Syrian Christian Specials Home-Delivered With Travancore Tasties

Shortcut

From God's Own Country

For lawyer-turned-food entrepreneur, Tresa Francis {originally from Kerala and currently based in Bangalore}, Travancore Tasties is all about bringing together her passion for cooking and her love for Syrian Christian dishes that she grew up on. From all-time favourites like Appam and Stew to the flavourful Red Fish curry, the online food delivery service is solely dedicated to authentic Kerala cuisine. Single-handedly managing the orders {with a little help from her mother}, Tresa uses traditional recipes and is very particular about the preparation of each dish, right from chopping the onions in a certain way {for that perfect crunch} to adding the spices {brought from Kerala}. Orders have to be placed atleast two days in advance so that she has enough time to procure the right ingredients and prepare the dishes.

Kerala Specials

While starters include cutlets in beef, chicken, fish and spinach and corn versions {she even makes cutlets with vazhapoo or banana flower!}, the side dishes like Beef Ulathu {beef fry}, Kerala-style Prawn Dry and Red Fish Curry {seer fish cooked with Malabar tamarind and red chilli powder} vie for your attention. Make sure you try her Biryanis {chicken, fish, mutton, prawn and veg}, made in a mix of Malabar and Kutchi styles. Oh, and Tender Coconut Pudding for your dessert fix!

Made To Order

What really got us excited is the fact that Tresa’s dishes aren’t limited by the menu you see. Have a Kerala dish you’re craving for? She will happily whip it up for you! So, while you might not find too many vegetarian options or popular combos like Kappa and Fish Curry listed on her website, all you need to do is place an order. We hear she has had requests for sadhyas as well as specials like Coconut Crumbed Chicken.
